Solution

To solve this problem, we need to use the formula for pressure due to a fluid column, which is P = ρgh, where P is the pressure, ρ is the fluid density, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height (or depth in this case) of the fluid column.

  1. First, calculate the pressure at a depth
